About: I’ve always grew up loving animals. I was 9 yrs old when my mom started to foster dogs! So I always helped her with them all the time. She is also a dog groomer back home so at her job i would always go and help in daycare and be around 20+ dogs every day and absolutely loved it!!!! I do have 2 dogs of my own. A lab/blue lacy. And a german shepherd. And also 2 cats! Im always home ! And love going and playing fetch or just laying around with my animals! I am currently not working so i can work around anyone’s schedule!! I live in a house with a fenced in backyard! Potty brakes will be 30mins to insure your puppers are going. outside playtime will be 30 mins with lots of water and playtime inside to insure they are in the cold!!
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals for about 6 years ranging from dogs and cats to ducks and pigs. I love taking care of furry friends and adapt well to each animals unique personality. Whether it’s going for long walks, sticking to a feeding schedule, or just offering comfort and companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible school schedule that allows me to be home regularly, which makes it easy to incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Whether it's drop-in visits, walks, or overnight stays, I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of both pets and their owners. I have a fully fenced backyard and two fur babies of my own, a cat and a dog who are great with other animals. My dog is free roaming, but I also have an extra crate if needed. I make sure all pets get plenty of attention, including frequent walks and outdoor play. Whether in my home or a client’s, I always provide a safe, clean, and caring environment.
“Danielle was an amazing sitter and I definitely plan to call on her in the future. She house sat my three pups and cat while we were out of town. I have never been so confident that my babies and my house were in good hands. Danielle’s love for dogs was immediately evident. I was very impressed and the dogs immediately warmed up to her and her pup, Chewy. Everyone had a blast!! Chewy is also really good with cats and was super patient while Binx acclimated to the change. Danielle’s communication was amazing both with schedule changes and babies. She was very in tune with all the babies and called with any potential problems. And her ability to manage 4 dogs and a cat during feeding times was super impressive. While staying at the house, she did so much more than just watch the babies. Additionally, she picked up the mail, watered plants, kept everything tidy, and stripped the bed and started a load of laundry before she left on the last day of her stay. 100% recommend Danielle if you need a sitter!!”

About: My family has always had pets. Growing up, we had dogs of every kind and size. As an adult, we have had several pets, but currently have one husky named Luna and one cat named Darcy Binks! They are well loved. Let us bring our care and affection to your sweet pets! I'm a homemaker mom of six babies, one dog, one cat, and 8 kittens. My kiddos will all be in school and out of the house, so, I'm wide open on scheduling. We have a fenced in yard and a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks for easy walking. We can play with your pets after feeding and watering. After the last visit of the day, we will clean and dispose of any droppings in the yard, so you can come home to a clean start!
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and several years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every fur baby like my own. I’m comfortable adapting to the care your pet needs and the routine you prefer. I understand it can be stressful to be away from your babies, and some may need a little extra love. As a pet owner myself, I want you to feel confident, secure, and worry-free knowing your loved one is well cared for. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily prioritize pet care throughout my day. I’m able to plan my routine around your pet’s needs and provide consistent attention. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. In my home, I provide a calm environment with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and crates available if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.
“Karen is great with our babies. They really loved her and we felt comfortable going away with her watching them. Can’t want to continue to use her services in the future. 10/10 recommend her!”

About: I have an extensive background in animal care. I currently own and trained my own dog. I’ve had her for two years already. Prior to her I was apart of FFA for my four years of highschool, raising various different livestock animals for stock show. My sister is also a vet tech and has taught me a lot of well needed knowledge when it comes to caring for pets. I believe they are not just a pet but a life long commitment and we only get to give them the best experience while they are with us. I believe any and all animals deserve the best care possible and each are unique in their own way :). In terms of my regular work schedule, I have a rotation of 5 days on and 5 days off. During the 5 days I am off work I am available for any of your pets needs, ranging from house sitting to basic walks and more. I’m sure with proper communication we can work out whatever schedule needed to match you and your pets needs :). My dog is crate trained but spends most of her time outside her crate since she is house trained as well as potty trained. She has well established boundaries which I believe is important as a dog owner. She is fed 3 times a day with 1 1/2 cups each feed. She is also up to date on all her vaccinations and is completely socialized. We also groom her 1-2 times a month. When I am working we schedule regular walking visits so her activities are regulated and she stays active :).

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 189 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Violet. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Violet walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Violet maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Violet choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
